Abstract
The present invention provides a method for minimizing fluence distribution of a laser over a predetermined pattern. In particular, the method is useful for minimizing fluence variance over a predetermined pattern for lasers used in ophthalmic surgery.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of laser beam energy correction method, it is used for proofreading and correct because the variation of the ability distributions on the focal plane that the deviation of focusing optics causes, and a kind of laser driving apparatus that adopts said laser beam energy correction method.Said method and apparatus of the present invention but is not used for the ophthalmology laser surgery process especially uniquely.
Background technology
An application-specific of the present invention is in ophthalmic surgical procedures, uses the excision plane of the laser-defined vitreous layer of photodisruption (photodisruptive), is used for the rectification of eyesight error to produce cornea flap.Vision impairment can be produced by many reasons, also is the result that many causes cause.A kind of defect condition that a VI common cause is eyes causes, this defect condition takes place when the ametropia characteristic of cornea does not make the infinite ray of light focus on the retina.When eyes were static, the ray focusing of light was in amphiblestroid front, and this situation is called myopia (being myopia).On the other hand, when the ray focusing of light during in amphiblestroid back, this situation is called long sight (being farsightedness).Myopia and two kinds of situations of long sight all can cause vision impairment in various degree.In most of the cases, these two kinds of situations all can be corrected.
Glasses or contact lenses are commonly used to myopia correction or long sight situation.Yet because a variety of causes, the many people that suffer from these situations are reluctant wear a pair of spectacles or contact lenses.The optional method of correcting these situations comprises the known surgical process of reinventing cornea with the whole bag of tricks, and these methods are effective to the ametropia characteristic that changes cornea.For example, in the United States Patent (USP) 4,665,913 and patent 4,669,466 of L ' Esperance, described a kind of laser system, it is from inside surface light excision cornea tissue of eyes.Another process is described in the United States Patent (USP) 4,988,348 of Bille, and wherein cornea tissue at first is removed to correct defects of vision, and the new then surface that produces is by smoothing.
Correct refractive defects except the each several part of the previous section that removes and reinvent eyes, use the photodisruption technology in the matrix of being called also to be developed with other process of matrix organization in being used to remove.An example of this process has description in people's such as Bille United States Patent (USP) 4,907,586.Another example that is used for removing the process of matrix organization is the process of describing in the United States Patent (USP) 6,110,166 of Juhasz.In this process, can limit the anterior angle rete through using laser to produce a series of overlapping photodisruption zones.Then, the surgeon comes angle of departure rete through starting it, the cornea tissue below arriving, and variation has taken place through the light excision in this tissue.Vitreous layer is reorientated on cornea then.
This photodisruption process comprises uses the pulse laser beam to remove the tissue in the matrix in the eye's cornea, and this pulse laser beam is sequentially focused on each spot of intramatrical a plurality of positions.Each focused spot has limited volume, rather than single point.Further, each spot has one roughly at the central point at this limited bulk center.When flowing greater than critical value or threshold value, and the volume of the matrix organization that divides on each spot is when approximating the volume of this spot greatly, and the photodisruption of matrix organization can occur on beam-focusing each spot.The amount of disorganization depends on can flow the size that surpasses threshold value.For the fixed gap of giving between the photodisruption spot, there is optimum ability flow valuve, to obtain best surgical effect.For example, be lower than said optimal value, then be difficult to start tissue if this can flow.If this can flow greater than said optimal value, then in the photodisruption process, can produce too much gas flow, made in the cornea next procedure of vision correction process opaque, therefore complicated, the light excision.Clinical research shows, when can rheologyization+/-10% the time, significant variation can appear in the result.Therefore, it is very important between each photodisruption point, having consistent ability distributions.
This pulse laser system (it comprises laser and focusing optics) provides uniform ability distributions ideally on the focal plane, therefore provide consistent photodisruption effect to distribute.Yet even the laser system of in these processes, using is set to constant energy, but because the variation of the focused spot in the focal plane can appear at the problem that the focal plane provides non-activation stream.Therefore, on some points of focal plane, variation meeting that can distributions is greater than optimal value, and on other aspect of laser focal plane, can be lower than optimal value.Subsequently, this can produce incomparable inconsistent photodisruption distribution on the focal plane.Although the eyeglass that a reason of ability rheologyization is a laser focusing passes substantially evenly, comprise by the defective of beam deviation generation and little variation.Deviation generally can change the size of spot in the focal plane.Through correcting energy, the present invention minimizes the ability rheologyization at every bit place on the focal plane, changes owing to the laser beam deviation causes spot size at the every bit place.
United States Patent (USP) 6; 287; 299 have described a kind of part guiding through can be with laser beam can flow monitoring equipment, so that the picture of the ability distributions on the curved surface in the overlapping pattern to be provided, monitors the method that can flow from a focused spot to another focused spot.Ability stream is through the quantity of the pulse of control irradiation a single point and controls through overlapping these spots.For this method, a plurality of pulses with the same point on the irradiation X/Y plane are very necessary.Yet 6,287, No. 299 patents are failed to solve and are proofreaied and correct because the problem of the ability rheologyization that the difference in the focusing optics causes.And the space between condenser lens and focal plane has in limited time very much, and monopulse photodisruption and high-NA focusing optics during this method is provided with real-time operation are otiose.
Among this paper, the inventor has showed a kind of method and apparatus that is used to overcome the prior art shortcoming.
